Abstract

With the development of a new and ever expanding wireless applications and services, spectrum resources are facing in demands. In present scenario, the spectrum allotment has been done by providing each new service with its own fixed frequency Slot. Most of the user’s spectrum is already assigned, so it becomes very difficult to find spectrum for other users or existing users. This leads to the scarcity of available spectrum and inefficient channel utilization. Cognitive radio is a novel technology which improves the spectrum utilization by allowing secondary user to borrow unused radio spectrum from primary licensed users or to share the spectrum with the primary users. Present paper deals with the spectrum sensing in which multiple users detect the spectrum gap through energy detection and investigate the detection performance in an efficient and implementable way. Simulation results showed that the probability of detection is achieved at small value SNR in case of OFDM modulation as compare the other and simple cognitive environment.
